Janet Sperling is an entomologist, researcher and president of the Canadian Lyme Disease Foundation. During her early years studying entomology, she recalls that at that time, Lyme disease seemed very simple. When living in the US, Janet interacted with several people that had a much broader understanding of the disease. When her son contracted Lyme disease years later, it became evident how complicated the disease could be. She points out that not only is it very complicated, it can be very different from one person to the next. www.canlyme.com/janet-sperling/ Show notes: www.lookingatlyme.ca/2024/03/59-lyme-disease-canada-janet-sperling/…
